Welcome to my site. I will be Chronicling the construction of our new home. Here is a brief history of my experiance in this area. I moved every few years as a child. As an adult I stayed in one house for 25 years, but helped remodel it four times. From a minor bath redo to adding an entire second story to the house. Now my husband and I have moved to AZ to care for my elderly parents and are undertaking to be the owner/builders of a custom home. Some people don't like change but I guess I'm not one of them. Or perhaps it is just limited change I like. To my husband's current dismay I helped build a 4000 square foot house in Romania in 2001. We took it from slab to fully furnished in 11 days. I therefore have meager patience for the pace of building here in Arizona.

Lots of Little Stuff

Well, it has been a fairly quiet week at the site this week. There is one 4 foot section of wall up so we could mount the electrical panel. Then we had to dig a trench from the road up to the pad. We are hoping the power company will drop and energize the cable this coming week. The post tension cables have been tightened and cut off. We got our dumpster and have it perhaps 1/4 filled already with tree trimmings, hardened rinsed-off concrete from the pour, and other assorted trash. This coming week will be finalizing plans with the framing contractor and cabinet supplier. Soon it will begin to look like a house!!
